Matpat "I'm perfectly sane, why does everyone think I'm crazy?" Also matpat. bread gloves, eating a tree twice, cannibalism week

"This steaks pretty good, was this cooked in a grill or oven?" "Dryer, sir."

MatPat is like a mad scientist when explaining his dryer and kitchen become one revelation and it’s hilarious 😂 11:53

Fun mildly related fact, in the UK its very common to have washing machine and occasionally a drier in the kitchen so the problem of having two separate rooms is already not a problem over here.

The amount of money I would pay to see Steph’s face when MatPat said “Hey let’s cook food *in a dryer* “

So you’re telling me that Food theory has been around for over a year and there still isn’t a 5 second rule video? That’s like the #1 food topic!

I think this video is made much more entertaining with the knowledge that this was Ash's first day on the job.

It should be mentioned that food can look and taste cooked sufficiently, while still being unsafe to eat. It really should have had a temperature probe of sorts, especially if the laundry can indeed affect the food.

The "for posterity's steak" line was just gold, it literally put every pun matt has ever done to shame and then you can immediately see him question his every life choice. 🤣🤣🤣

MatPat went from theorizing real world time travel physics to cooking food in a dryer *I'm so proud of him*

I love this video because I’m just imaging Ollie sometime in the future talking to his friends like “oh yeah my parents tried to cook dinner in the dryer once” “…why??” “for SCIENCE”

Matpat- "Why have 2 large machines, one in your kitchen and one in your laundry room??? Why not, COMBINE them into one!? This could revolutionize cooking!!" Me, an Appliance Repair Service Technician- "Oh God, please no, DON'T YOU DARE!"

I really hope that "Bread Gloves Day" will be a regular term for "MatPat had a crazy idea for the food channel" in the future.

When I was stationed in Texas one of the locals from church would fix his award winning brisket in an old dishwasher. He said it took 13 hours, but to this day it's still the best brisket I've ever had.

Mat's marketing speech actually made me want to try this thing out. Should've had a "don't try this at home" warning guys, now I'm gonna destroy my dryer by putting in a dozen sirloin steaks Update: my dryer has indeed been destroyed.

Idk why, but the idea that this was Ash's first video with the theorists always makes me smile

Food Theory is like the youngest sibling of the Theorist channels, capable of pulling off the most off-the-wall stuff and getting away with it, and I’m here for it.

5:58 , I’d pay to see this conversation. Matpat: so… you know a lot about dryers, Jim? Refurbisher: yes. Also my name isn't- Matpat, leaning casually against the dryer: Great, that’s really great, Jim. Say, how long do you think it could take to.., say- cook some steak in this thing? Refurbisher: sorry? Matpat: you heard me Jim.

Steph watching matt eat the pizza be like: noooo my Italian citizenship

i enjoy every food theory but the "real life" episodes with stephanie are all definitely my favourites

I, for one, love how Mat Pat turns everyone's shower thoughts into actual scientific experiments.

Seeing how widely tested the “cooking things in dishwasher” trend was, it’s about time to start cooking in a dryer trend.

This was Ashe's first time working for the theorist channels and I can't even comprehend the confusion she must have felt😂😂

I love seeing Mat and Stephanie be so happy over something so simple. Just warms my heart

Alternate title: College student's guide of desperately trying to save money in anyway possible

Gordon : This isn't microwaved.What is it? Matpat : Well,I needed to dry my clothes-

Still waiting for you guys to patent this. If you could actually design a dryer with a dedicated food compartment or something, I’d TOTALLY buy it.

i love how steph is just like "i can't believe my husband's stupid idea worked"

Matpat: "Man I'm hungry what about you?" Steph: "Yeah wanna make some food?" Matpat: "Sure, lemme get the Dryer"

Ollie: “Dad why does my clothes smell like steak?” Matpat: “Oh that’s because I cooked steak in there before.”

Can we just talk about how cool they look? I wish i had this level of style

I accidentally cooked chicken with hot water once. I was trying to thaw it with the hottest tap water and it literally cooked the whole way through

VERY IMPORTANT!! I told my grandmother about this, and she told me about an old drier she has. it came with a sweater rack that can be fitted to the inside and you can lay things on it and they stay stationary in the center while everything else spins around it!! I think drier cooking would be good to experiment with a sweater rack! :D

Can you imagine being neighbors with matpat and seeing him do this outside lol

who is watching this after the microwave episode in 2024 👇🏻 🥂

5:45 the teacher when the whole class fails the test

Next week on Clothes Theory: Can you dry your socks in the oven?

I’m dying to know how their neighbors reacted to seeing them eat shrimp out of a dryer in their driveway

This was such a fun episode! Is it safe to eat food in heated ziplocks? Do they leach plastic into the food?

This is how food will be cooked in the future. They are living thousands of years before us I swear.

4:21 Mat: Now obviously this is going to fail horrifically Rest of the video shows that cooking with a dryer actually worked and makes amazing steaks.

Matpat’s true talent is being able to keep a straight face while making his dad approved commentary. Talk about being a absolute legend.

You can just see how much fun MatPat is having with this episode.

I love that Matpat can make clickbait titles/thumbnails and they won't be clickbait

Matpat: "Mom can I try to cook dinner in the dryer" Momma Pat: "You can do anything you want when you have your own house."

I want a Matpat cover of "What else can I do" while throwing steaks in the dryer

missed opportunity to do a lily's garden reference 13:12 so that's how leshy made the cake. an idea for a video: can you fry a pancake using a toaster?

Mat over the years has become a mad scientist and I am living for it.

It seems like a natural progression of this channel to be cooking food in a dryer now

You know,Food Theory is becoming more of a food experiment channel rather than theories,which I absolutely don’t mind cuz it’s fun that way

This is without a doubt my favorite theory video it's so random and funny. Thank you matpat for making this we will miss your charisma and charm

“Can I eat this?” “No.” Steph didn’t even look up or hesitate 😂

Matt's pure bewilderment when he realizes that he cooked food and did laundry at the same time is just infectious.

Just imagine dinner at Matt's house, makes for a weird conversation. "Hey this steak is great". "Thanks, I'll put more in the dryer when I dry my underwear". 😯

This feels like pumping head in into a new comedy show episode Except that this is reality. This video made me smile so much. Never thought you could cook something in the DRYER, and just love your over-research as usual. xD

this video was legit pretty good I found it funny because of Mat pats random thoughts "we can pattent this!" lol

PLEASE do the vacuum smoothie! Also, this has been one of the most entertaining and simultaneously motivating episodes yet. Keep it up!

Steak Restaurant's waiter: Sir how would you want your steak? Matpat: I want it dryer cooked. Waiter: You mean more than well done? Matpat: No, I mean cooked in a dryer. Throw in some T-shirts and Shorts in along in the cycle while you're at it.

Love seeing you and Steph do live action stuff. You guys throwing that steak around was great

Past Matpat: whats 2021/2022 like Future me? Present day MatPat: you have no idea

I feel like it's experiments like these that yield the best results. For all we know, the world's greatest inventions could have come from experiments like these.

A few things to add, as someone who has previously worked in the domestic appliance industry for 3 years: The dryer you're using in the video is a vented dryer. These are the most inefficient dryers there are, so that would factor into your calculations about how much things cost. Condenser dryers are likely to be only slightly more efficient but release the same heat, whilst heat pump dryers are likely to require longer, but use half the electricity. Repeating this test with heat pump might make it win out, albeit with longer cooking times. It also means that going into the future, this idea is likely to become harder and harder, as vented dryers are being phased out. Companies like Bosch (BSH group, so Bosch, Siemens and Neff) no longer produce any vented dryers, at least here in the UK, Beko group make *one* model, with the only other company making them being Whirlpool group (Hotpoint, Indesit, Whirlpool, all of which are pretty awful). So, repeating this test with a different type of dryer would be interesting to see how it compares, especially as in the future it's likely to be harder to buy yourself a vented dryer. The important thing to note though is making sure food doesn't get into the condenser unit or heat pump unit, nor the heater itself. You *will* set your dryer on fire if you're not careful. It's not something to repeat at home. (This is actually why many Whirlpool group dryers were recalled; fluff would get into the heater and condenser, and thus set on fire. This is not something you want to play with further than some experiments.) Finally, it would be interesting to grab one of those shoe rack accessories for the dryer. That would likely be fairly interesting to compare, seeming as it'd be right in the middle of the machine, receiving consistent air.

And this is why I love Food Theory, the randomness you get with every theory gets weirder and weirder and I love it

Why was I expecting for Steph. to sell me the dryer 😂 Steph: *slaps the top of the dryer* this bad boy will cook your whole dinner.

This channel goes between “The History of Food” and “Food Life Hacks” whenever they feel and it’s great

That was one of the best episodes of Food Theory you've ever done. I'm sure that Steph's grandma will forgive her, just this once.

This episode makes me want to try this so much it seems like it’s really good 👍 surprisingly.

As far as asking for any of these other suggestions you guys talked about: smoothie in a vacuum cleaner sounds so interesting

Wonder how bizarre these experiments are gonna get untill mat realises he's gone crazy 😆

The more Stephanie shows up in videos, the more i think Mat may have competition for his dad jokes…

I ADORE how much of a theater kid he is at heart

I love when Steph is involved in these videos

So we're all prepared for the inevitable follow-up "Boiling an egg in a washing machine" episode right?

I'm so proud of Stephanie. For everything in this episode. 10/10 Stephaniing.

I love videos with both Matt and Stephanie!

This was great! I love Mat and Steph

After Stephanie’s steak pun my initial reaction was: “OMG Mats making horrible pun jokes is spreading to everyone”.

For the next charity stream, you need gordon ramsey to make 2 steaks. 1 will be cooked his way, the other in the dryer. BUT, the dryer needs to be a surprise twist so that he can call Matt a donut live on stream.

5:29 Gotta love how they’re so hyped when the egg finally goes in. I love this channel lol

I’m just trying to imagine this being my first day of work. Like what a start. I feel like this speaks worlds to who Ash is.

I have seen almost every theory episode across all three channels and this has been, hands down, without a shadow of a doubt, the most fun episode I have ever seen, mostly because of MatPat's sheer amount of excitement for this little experiment, I loved it.

I like Steph’s idea of a “vacuum blender”! I think that could be cool, and makes sense… but how?

7:45 Matpat: can I eat this? Steph: *No*

That vacuum smoothie idea from Steph sounds like an excellent idea

I love how excited MattPatt is in this one, he's having way too much fun.

I like how this channel went from theories about coffee to cooking in a dyer makes sense

All of them. Do all of them. This is so fun to watch :D

Vacuum smoothie sounds really cool and I would love to see that

Out of complete curiosity, I'd love to know how effective this works on steaks of different types and thickness. That piece you guys used seemed very thin, and not to undermine what could possibly be, the biggest innovation in cooking/drying history, but I would love to know if it's as effective at cooking something like a prime rib, or a rib-eye.

With the "Vaccuum Smoothy" idea, that could actually work. The only downside I can see to it is that the smoothy might melt from all the heat vacuums tend to generate. I know that some blenders can literally make soup (including the heating part) so maybe baking cream of something soup in a vacuum could work?

This is absolutely hilarious. I really love this

The pizza looks like some kind of food I’d sell

I've never gotten stronger Mythbusters vibes from a food theory episode and I love it

“Dryers are full of hot air” “Ovens are full of hot air” I can’t tell whether or not matpat’s head is full of hot air.

This channel is on another level… anyways I am now fighting the drive to try the vacuum smoothie…

Ok all of these theories where you ate the most risky things!! First a tree now cooking things in a dryer, how are you still alive? Btw love the vids! Keep up the good theorizing!

Matpat's pure joy throughout this episode is amazing and I love it. I kinda wish that there were like,, a million episodes with this energy now

You should also try wrapping the food with aluminum foil as it allows to keep that heat for longer periods. Maybe it could cook better that way? It's just a theory tho

Found next years Science Fair project! Fun fact, an M&M’s Melt in your Hand experiment, based off of another person me of his vids won me fourth place in a statewide competition early this year. Thanks for the ideas, MatPat!

I heard you can cook stuff in the dishwasher and I would like to see how that compares to the dryer. I also wonder if the drying cycle on a dishwasher can reach higher temps. I would also like to see the vacuum smoothie too.
